Opportunity Summary:
The Chesapeake Youth Corps Intern opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 13 NERO 0063) is a National Park Service notice of intent to award a single cooperative agreement related to youth conservation and environmental education activities. It is not an open call for proposals and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notification that the National Park Service (U.S. Department of the Interior) plans to move forward with a specific, pre-identified agreement action without full and open competition.
The planned award is tied to Task Agreement P13AC00723 under an existing Cooperative Agreement (P12AC30775) with the James River Association, which is the named cooperator. In practical terms, this means the NPS had already established a broader cooperative framework with this partner, and this notice is announcing the intent to fund a particular set of project activities under that umbrella. The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding using a cooperative agreement instrument, with activity areas listed as education and environment. The CFDA number associated with the work is 15.931, Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations, signaling a focus on engaging young people in conservation-related service or internship activities connected to natural and cultural resource stewardship.
Financially, the announcement lists an estimated total funding amount of $25,000, and both the award floor and award ceiling are also $25,000, indicating a fixed expected award amount rather than a range. Only one award was anticipated. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated, meaning the partner was not expected to provide a formal non-federal match as a condition of the award.
Eligibility is listed broadly as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but because this is a notice of intent to award without competition and explicitly not an application solicitation, the practical recipient is the identified partner rather than the general pool of eligible organizations. The timeline reinforces that this is an administrative notice rather than a competitive cycle: it was posted on June 28, 2013, with an original and current closing date of July 2, 2013, and it was archived on July 3, 2013.
For anyone trying to understand the specifics of what the intern project would do, the notice points readers to an attachment available under the "Full Announcement" section for complete details. If access to the full announcement is difficult, the listed point of contact is Peggy Wall, Administrative Officer, at 410-260-2473, with an NPS office email referenced for assistance.
